I can't drag the images to the new folder that i create and I don't know why...I am using a dell laptop with no mouse

I "left click" and hold the image, than I try to move it to the img folder but it won't go into the folder and I'm very confused. Please let me know what i'm doing wrong.

I'm thinking I need a mouse if that's the problem.

Hi there! I sort of doubt that's the problem. If you downloaded these files in a .zip file you will need to extract them from the .zip file first and then upload them. If you've already extracted them, try using the menu with File -> Upload and see what happens! Let me know if any of this helped! :sparkles:

I had the same problem, and thought I had tried everything. I kept dragging the files to the appropriate work space section, and they downloaded, but wouldn't go into the folder. Finally, when I downloaded, after extracting the files, I went under the "view" tab, then I clicked "list." Then I dragged them, and they somehow went into the appropriate folder. I'm really not sure if this was the key that made it work, but somehow it did allow them to go into the folder. Also, when you right click to create the new folder, make sure to create the new "folder," not a new "file". I made that mistake at first.
